Great value for your travel dollar (or Colones) We loved staying there for the convenience to the local area yet privacy in the hills. We will return for a longer visit with our wonderful hosts, Brigette and Leon.The nights were alive with the sounds of animals and insects and a beautiful night sky. Apparently we are not unusual in turning off all thee lights and sitting on the deck at night.

Located in a quiet area - very peaceful. We enjoyed driving through a local community to reach Lodge Margouillat. Beautiful grounds - Thomas has created something very special. We were in Tambor bungalow - very spacious; lovely furnishings; wide, comfortable, bed with lovely bed linen; walk-in closet with shelves and hanging space; good-sized bathroom with large shower area; settee, coffee table, chairs and table in living room area; good-sized fridge/freezer (much bigger than expected); outdoor seating in secluded area. Two lovely pools - we made very good use of these. Thomas was a great host and was very welcoming - he gave useful recommendations and we enjoyed our conversations with him. We ate at Al Chile 4 times - good food, cheap, and where locals also eat.

This location is different than we usually choosing during our trips. It is close to jungle/forrest, what is highly appreciated. As well as during the day it is nice stay with SUP/kayak possibilities (it is free!), we like that a lot! This area is part of some park so there is no possibility to hike around a lot, you can do SUP/kayak (mentioned before) or you need to buy boat trip or take a taxi to Pochote and travel by your car or take a bus. Breakfast and other food was perfect, we appreciated that a lot! Please install some nets to one window in bathroom and in living room.

Breakfast was outstanding! Best of any hotel I stayed at in CR. Beds were very comfortable and the room was spacious. Bathroom was very nice, good shower and great toiletries. Little kitchen area and terrace with table, chairs, and hammock was wonderful. Hotel grounds are stunning and the pools are great.

This place is truly amazing. We had an apartment up the hillside with a beautiful ocean view, a balcony and a terrace with private sunbeds. In this small town everything is in short walking distance anyway, so it's nice to have a kind of overview from here. The rooms are very thoroughly and uniquely crafted, they are held in a nice natural stony / wooden style with love for small details. It is super clean and everything works well, including warm water in the shower, ac, fridge, WiFi etc. so that we didn't lack anything during our stay. The staff is exceptionally friendly and accommodating. We can highly recommend the place.

This is the place to go to see the bioluminescent plankton.

This is the place to go to see the bioluminescent plankton. It was beautiful. The ferry ride was fun. We used Eddy’s tour. He was very knowledgeable about the biodiversity and the provided the best bioluminescence tour. We did have four senior couples in our group. Eddy was very thoughtful about helping some of our group into the boat

Excellent service from the staff.

Excellent service from the staff. Cabins were really nice, although dark as they are made of local wood. No plastic anywhere. Good kitchen facilities. Lacked a good light anywhere to read under, other than that, our stay was most pleasant. Henry’s pizza, and the bar next door, just 100m along the road, had excellent food and drinks as well. There is a well stocked mini super 50m further to stock up on snacks and food if you use the kitchen in the cabin. All in all, a most pleasant stay.

Playa Tambor is a sleepy little village, very quiet.

Playa Tambor is a sleepy little village, very quiet. The beach itself is very nice, especially when the tide is out, there are large sand flats. There is a small resort just off the beach called the Tambor Tropical resort which we used for drinks and lunch, very nice, all outdoor tables and bar, great staff. We spent one day at Santa Theresa beach, about 45 minute drive away. Fantastic beach, busy beach town, great if you want to watch the surfers, go for a beautiful long walk or lounge around on the beach. Not that great for actual swimming since it is quite flat, you need to walk out a long way to get to your waist. We didn't eat while there so I can't comment on restaurants except to say there where lots of them. We found the whole area beautiful and intend to visit again.

The hotel is very well looked after and clean.

The hotel is very well looked after and clean. Food was good not great but no complaints. Drinks were simple but adequate No real mojito here. Very little English speaking workers and was frustrating. I personally would not recommend the hotel unless you spoke Spanish. The hotel is shooting themselves in the foot by not attracting guests I would not recommend the hotel to family and friends for that reason and we heard that from many English guests The Disco at night had no one in it and the music blasted so load with the base boom boom boom till 3 am Wrong music for the majority of your travellers and started at 11 pm to late for many Staff was friendly and wanted to help just that language barrier When you went out to eat any place on the property the staff are oblivious if you require more coffee or water or wine. You have to flag them down

Small village, isolated - at the bottom of the peninsula.

Small village, isolated - at the bottom of the peninsula. Road to get there is slow and curvy (suggest only driving during daylight, if you are driving a rental). Great restaurants and has a local grocery store. ATM about 5min away, or a full bank / ATM about 20min drive (Cobano town).

Tambor is a strange place, dominated by a big all-inclusive...

Tambor is a strange place, dominated by a big all-inclusive resort hotel and a massive golf community development, which together make the beach access very limited, unfortunate for anyone who doesn't stay or live at either place. There are not a lot of restaurants or a real centre to Tambor and we ended up going to Cobano for shopping and dining and spent a great day in Montezuma, where we would go back to in the future.

Everything. The site is like paradise on earth. The staff, mainly Thomas was exceptionally helpful and so friendly and caring with a huge smile and a great attitude. The breakfast is generous and so refined with a great French touch. We also had the luxury to enjoy a great hot shower, which seems to nlbe quite rare in CR. A great hotel that I strongly recommend.
